Minidlna not responding ?
Most current OS, minidlnad -V says version 1.1.5. I'm currently transfering a lot of video files. This yields several issues. - my client "loses" minidlna connection completely if I leave it idle...

Thanks! I'll try that tomorrow, as it's probably going to take all day to rebuild the db.
(going to watch stuff tonight, rm the db and restart the service tomorrow, do the debug and force the rescan... I gotta admit I'm not a big fan of systemd, obviously).

I wasn't either until it just clicked with me. Now, everything I use is Debian 8 and has systemd.

okay, killed the service, removed the database, started things from scratch.
Monitoring in one window with sqlite3 (select path from details order by id desc limit 15;)
and in the other with journalctl -f
wait and see... crossing fingers.
MIght be the first scan got interrupted and the database corrupt... though sqlite is fairly resilient, maybe minildna isn't.
I admit I just throw my full NFS share at minildna and let it sort it out... expecting my tools to work, too much time working on OpenBSD maybe.
Surprised there are still signal reset at the entrance of every handler in minildna. I figured all relevant platforms have safe signals by now.- espieMar 16, 2016Guide
looks like there's a memory leak in minidlnad...
Mar 16 01:53:27 mnemosyne kernel: [296313.858219] Out of memory: Kill process 28802 (minidlnad) score 42 or sacrifice child
Mar 16 01:53:27 mnemosyne kernel: [296313.858231] Killed process 28802 (minidlnad) total-vm:52868kB, anon-rss:39392kB, file-rss:4032kB
after 2 hours +. Obviously, systemd restarts it soon after, but it has to look at the whole beginning of the filesystem until it gets to where it should.
Did anyone run valgrind or something on it ?
Probably going to try to debug this on the other side of nfs... with proper instrumentation (even though this is going to go slow as hell).
